Spain's new registry for stillborn babies sparks debate

    This is challenging - I’m torn between both perspectives, but ultimately, it just seems nice to the grieving parents. I guess to a degree, I trust that this isn’t the start of clawing back abortion protections, which might be naiive of me

      Same. I hadn’t even thought of the other angle originally tbh. Kinda sad that we always have to be so alert to the nefarious things that a change in legislation could lead to.

          Rent control good example of looking term implications. Unfortunately governments and voters do not look much past their term.
